accustomed to take his lunch at the little
eating house situated at that time in the
lower part Of the old Scollay building.
Beans were then sold at ten cents per
plate The artist called for beans. -
They We're brought to him, but before the
waiter'left he observed that there were 10
pickles on the table. In his gruff voice
he called: ''Waiter Where are your
pickles? For heavens sake, what are
beans without pickles?'' Nine cents,
sir replied the waiter.-Boston Journal.

NO POLITICS IN III,

THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE has no concern
with Mr.. Cleveland's politics or his person
ality. 1t has never discussed either-scarcely
ever referred to either.
We only know him as a public servant
and the Chief Magistrate of the Nation. We
only speak Of him when his acts affect SOL
diers, or something that they take special
interest in We would say precisely the
same things of any other President, and
with equal Indifference to his personality
and political affiliations We have praised
him whenever he did just thing for the
veterans-which, alas! has been too seldom
and we have blamed him when he did
unjust ones-which, alas again, has been
too often. II we have made any shortcOm-
ings it has been on the side Of leniency, for
we have kept silent when we should have
spoken in regard to his throwing Union
soldiers out Of Office and replacing them
with civilians; TO his preference of civilians
to Union soldiers of his own party in max
ing appointments.
No reader of THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE
needs TO be told that politics counts for
nothing, and friendship for the veteran for
everything with us. No paper in the coun-
try has had more words of praise than We
for such splendid Democratic friends of the
soldier as Gen. Black, Senator Voorhees,, Gen.
Rosecrans, Gen. Wolford, Hon. Il. w. Town
sbend and Others whose names constantly
appear in these columns. Nor has any paper
said harsher things of Republican public
men, who have been inimical to the soldiers
One need only turn TO the files Of THE
NATIONAL TRIBUNE while the Republicans
were in power to find there as sharp criti-
cisms of men who denied justice to soldiers
AS there has been of some of those who are
in power under the Democracy.
Our platform has but one plank: Justice
to the soldiers We do not give q thought
to any mans politics when applying this
test 10 him.
